South Korea will supply eight ageing, ground-attack aircraft free to Peru to try to encourage arms deals with Central and South American nations. Peru had been showing interest in the A-37B Dragonfly jets which the South Korean Air Force grounded due to maintenance budget shortfalls. The handover ceremony was to be held later Thursday at Peru's Las Palmas Air Base near the capital Lima. The Cessna A-37B Dragonfly was used mainly in the Vietnam War as a ground attack aircraft. South Korea bought the planes from the United States during the 1970s but retired all 20 of them in 2007.
